CR can function without a casino

Was that Steve Gray, the pusher of the yes vote for the casino here in Cedar Rapids, an executive of the McLeodUSA company that went broke a few years ago? If he is, dumb I listened to him and Clark McLeod that the company was solvent, and two weeks after the solvent message, the company was broke.
I was lucky, I just lost thousands of dollars invested. The employees, I heard they lost their investments, savings and retirement.
A short time after the bankruptcy was announced, Gray started ImOn Communications. Where did the money come from? I believed Gray once, not again.
Cedar Rapids got along without a casino for years and it can get along for many more.
